Stand outside 12 A r g y l l Street (right next if Oxford Circus Tube) between 9 a.m.-9p.m. and you wi l l see new revolutionaries making their way up to the 4th Floor. They carry no text books and only attend H O 1 hour a day. After 12 one hour attendances tney are qualified... they can touch type at 20 words per minute (anotner 12 hours lakes them to 40 w.p.m.. and another 12 for 60 w.p.m.). Tnis means they wi l l now type out lectures, notes, dieses, letters in quick time, keep copies easily and generally have things organized.

When holidays come there are touch typing jobs galore (£14 a week!) and its a ski l l they'll never regret acquiring—revolutionary or not! Cost of 9 gns. for 12 one-hour lessons and the fact that only one hour per day is required mke Sight and Sound a revolutionary ideology!

a letter arrived in the F E L I X

new method of teaching touch

of that of conventional methods.

The letter gave the informat-

ion that for a fee of 9 gns. as

it was possible to lern to touch

type (at an average speed of 25

words per minute) and for

a further 9 gns. at a speed of 40

INSURANCE

AND THE STUDENT

A S A S T U D E N T you are

probably painfully aware(

of the numerous Insurance)

circulars that you receive, and

I am equally aware that most)

waste paper basket, unread.

Being inundated with these

circulars has caused the Student

to be sceptical about Insurance.

UNIVERSITY IN THE LIMELIGHT

- A LOOK AT SUSSEX One of the nearer Universities to London

is Sussex. Perhaps the most expensive

university that we have for the number of

people involved. Since its conception it

has been rarely out of the news. A fuss

was caused when the (Brighton Town'

Planning Committee rejected Sir Basil

Spence's plan for a chapel or meeting

house, because it did not fit in with the rest

of his plans. Recently the Sunday Tele-

graph joined in the campaign started by

the Daily Mail to present the image of

the Sussex student as a sex-mad, orgy-

loving creature.

<One . . . important aspect of the physicist's work . . . concerns the design of

apparatus to carry out the many special measurements for which no commercial

equipment exists. For example, this has involved the design and construction

of mass spectrometers, and more and more instruments of various kinds are

being developed not only to measure a property continuously, but to use this

measurement for control of a manufacturing process. Obviously, for small

manufacturing units instrumentation will tend to be simple and robust, but for

large-scale continuous manufacture, representing turn-over values of many

millions of pounds per annum, much more sophisticated methods are feasible.

H e r e . . . the physicist will find himself,

in collaboration with colleagues with

different training and interests, using

the most powerful ancillary techniques,

such as digital computers . . .9

STOATS & WEASELS - FUN & GAMES

'STOATS' is now well and truly under way. What's 'Stoats'? Why,

it's that new 'sporting' club I was telling you about at the end

of last term. By now, if yesterdays meeting went according to

plan, it has a starting complement of just over a hundred mem-

bers, which will build up as the years go along to three hundred

or so members at college plus those who have left.

Living on a Shoestring? Never mind, it can't last for ever. And while you are preparing to make your first million, it's just as well to open an account at the Midland Bank. For an account can help you now—when help is needed most—to manage your money affairs more easily. More important it will go on helping you as your money problems change through the years (for money problems never cease, however rich one becomes —they merely assume a different form). So make the wise decision today: have a word with your local Midland branch. The staff will be glad to help you—whether you're ever likely to make a million or not I

The season so far for the I.C.

1st Hockey Team has been one

of a disastrous start (14 goals

conceded in 6 matches in

October), a slow recovery (17

goals scored in November

leading to a triumphant De-
